Hello,

My display (Sony) calibration was set do "disabled display calibration". When looking HDR content with MADVR the display (Auto detect settings) correctly switched to Bt.2020 and HDR.

But, I recently watched a video that is Bt.2020 non HDR. The Tv Color Space stayed at BT.709. I never noticed that my tv color space didn't switch automatically to the correct color space as 99% of my content is Bt.709. Is it normal that Madvr doesn't sent color space metadata unless HDR. Had to change my calibration to "diaplay is calibrated to BT.709". Doing so, MADVR translate the color space from BT.2020 to BT.709 loosing precious colors during the process but at least the display show accurate color.

Could switch the tv manually to BT.2020 but nobody wants to do that, right?
